This is the story of two children named Anna and Raffael. Anna was 6 years old and Raffael 11. Like many children today, they were children of divorced parents, an issue that privileged them enough, since in the competition between mom and dad to see who better exercised fatherhood, gifts abounded right hand and sinister.
Antonio, the father, had even devised a way to give money to Raffael without his ex-wife Isabel could intervene, and had created a portfolio of cryptocurrencies to the child on his tablet. In addition, he had taught him to buy products and services directly with them, without the need to change them to fiat money.
Raffael was an expert in handling all kinds of devices, since from a very young age many smartphones, tablets and laptops had gone through their not very delicate hands. In a cycle already quite daily, every time that Raffael seemed to have a more up-to-date device to run the latest apps and games on the market, the turn-based device ended up in the dumpster.
At age 11, the child, who was far from being a genius, was already an accomplished gamer and had his own YouTube channel that went up gameplays and in which he received tips in cryptocurrencies and fiat currencies for this work.
Raffael's curiosity about the world of technology increased more and more, and although he still did not dare to enter the deep web (that internet content that is not indexed by the search engines or has been protected with passwords), Yes, I had entered into chat groups and forums through the most popular social networks to deal with sensitive issues.
The accountant firm that belonged to his father had been the victim of one of these children's computer trips, although no one had found out. Unintentionally, Raffael clicked on a malicious link contained in an email (the practice of placing such links in web correspondence is called phishing ) and ran a ransomware-type virus on the servers that hijacked the information of the teams , asking in return for a reward in cryptocurrencies.
The company was able to recover without giving the reward thanks to the fact that most of the clients had an information backup, but all the data contained in the company's interlinked computers was completely lost.
Later, Antonio hired the services of a security firm, but did not identify Raffael as the cause of the mess. As the child explored every corner of the shallow internet, it had also benefited some cryptocurrency miners who installed web miners on pages where the pre-teen spent many hours a day.
However, these episodes were harmless compared to the situation faced by Raffael on the Facebook social network. For a long time, a person, whose gender and identity has not been revealed, was finding the attention of minors, and Raffael was one of them.
It all began with a request for friendship that, as usual, Raffael accepted, since among more friends better, it does not matter if they are known or not. This person, who will identify how AH sent the request to the child, and as soon as it was approved, was dedicated to reacting to his publications, in order to get his attention.
The avatar of AH was a kind of pretty disturbing white mask. With dilated pupils and very large teeth, apparently the face had neither lips nor eyelids, since the site where they should be located was delineated red.
Once he got Raffael to write to the private chat, AH began to send incomprehensible texts in a strange language that, when translated, disturbed the child a lot, because he was threatened with sexual abuse and many more practices that he did not know at his young age. Raffael did not report what happened to Isabel or Antonio because he considered that he could get rid of the situation himself, as on previous occasions.
In addition to the threatening messages, AH sent numbers with coordinates format that Raffael did not dare to locate. When the child asked AH to stop writing to him, it was already quite late, since that person had taken his cell phone number and sent him threats on that device as well, saying that if he informed someone about it, he would go to his house the night.
Likewise, AH sent quite explicit photographs, with sexual and violent content that not even an average adult would be able to observe without being a little perturbed. Raffael's behavior changed those days. He became more withdrawn and avoided electronic devices. Isabel attributed this to the changes typical of puberty and, after talking with the child and not hearing anything alarming, ruled out any suspicion.
After many pleas, Raffael stopped writing to AH who seemed to be upset by this fact, and began to call him late at night, from an unknown number. When answering, Raffael listened to the sound of a breath or strange sounds that made him stand on the skin. AH was also able to gain access to the child's cameras, and sent him photographs with his photo and the places where he was.
When the boy covered the cameras and microphones of his laptop and tablet with tape, he received a picture of his sister's room, where he could see the girl's favorite doll, with which she slept every night.
Armed with courage and determined to end the situation, Raffael decided to speak with his parents and, if necessary, he would not hesitate to call the police. The boy went to his sister's room, to make sure he was safe, before proceeding. However, on the site he only found his mother crying and very upset with a note in his hand. The note said "do not worry about looking for the girl alive. I'll wait for you and the private keys of your wallets, Raffael. "
